It's almost 'projection' untempered by any basic knowledge that to some the opprobrium is actually a badge of honour and a status symbol with no costs whatsoever.

Also I've often noticed that a persons opinion on how a crime should be punished is directly proportional to their belief that they could, in some circumstance, commit said crime (witness most peoples opinions on 'minor' theft as opposed to rape/murder/paedophilia).

It shines a whole new light on the 'punishments' handed down by judges and magistrates doesn't it?

That's not even considering most of 'the elites' views that the rest of we plebs 'don't know any better' and 'can't stop ourselves;.
